DH_RUBY_FIXDEPENDS(1)

✨ dh_ruby_fixdepends(1) — the manual, but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, so this is the page for dh_ruby_fixdepends, and honestly? it's a short one. a lil snack of a manpage. but every crumb matters so let's go 💅

---

💖 NAME 💖

dh_ruby_fixdepends — fixes up the dependencies in the shlibs file after dh_shlibdeps has done its thing, no cap

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

dh_ruby_fixdepends

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. she takes no arguments, she takes no flags, she simply is 🦋

---

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so here's the tea: dh_ruby_fixdepends gets called by the ruby dh sequence. it's a backstage crew member, not a main character. she's doing her lil job behind the curtain while the whole debhelper pipeline runs.

and because of that:

You should not call it directly. like. don't. fr fr. she's not built for solo performances, she's part of an ensemble 🎭

that's literally the entire description. short, sweet, iconic in her own understated way.
